Diabetes mellitus, often simply referred to as diabetes, is a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the body does not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced. This high blood sugar produces the classical symptoms of polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst) and polyphagia (increased hunger).
The three main types of diabetes mellitus (DM) are:
Other forms of diabetes mellitus include congenital diabetes, which is due to genetic defects of insulin secretion, cystic fibrosis-related diabetes, steroid diabetes induced by high doses of glucocorticoids, and several forms of monogenic diabetes.
All forms of diabetes have been treatable since insulin became available in 1921, and type 2 diabetes may be controlled with medications. Both types 1 and 2 are chronic conditions that usually cannot be cured. Pancreas transplants have been tried with limited success in type 1 DM; gastric bypass surgery has been successful in many with morbid obesity and type 2 DM. Gestational diabetes usually resolves after delivery. Diabetes without proper treatments can cause many complications. Acute complications include hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, or nonketotic hyperosmolar coma. Serious long-term complications include cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure, and diabetic retinopathy (retinal damage). Adequate treatment of diabetes is thus important, as well as blood pressure control and lifestyle factors such as smoking cessation and maintaining a healthy body weight.

Chovam se jak dobytek,
ale moh bych jeste hur,
nastesti mi brani muj celkem dobrej vkus
a obcas taky vycitky svedomi
a obcas taky vycitky svedomi
Pak se taky bojim, ze mi to v pekle spocitaj,
zato kdyz budu hodnej, tak me ceka raj
a vecnej zivot a drahy kameni
a vecnej zivot a drahy kameni
Kdysi jsem byl hodnej, ale hovno jsem si uzil,
s frigidnima holkama ja vul jsem se druzil,
byla se mnou nuda a nudil me svet,
v nebi bych vypadal jako divnej skret
a hnali by me odsud mecem ohnivym
a hnali by me odsud mecem ohnivym
a hnali by me odsud mecem ohnivym
